      Seriously, I’m appalled that Ford has fully stopped selling sedans and hatchback in the US for several years at this point. You can get a small crossover SUV, and the other small car they still sell is the Mustang.

      I really, really hate SUVs.

        Yeah, but at 2/3 overweight or obese by population, the average American is too fat for small hatchbacks. Enormous, child smashing pickups @ 12mpg are just A-OK tho.
